The notion of urban’ is derived from ‘urbs’ which refers to the built city and ‘civets’ which refers to feelings, rituals and convictions that define urban life.It connotes a dialectic relationship between materialism and ideas. This can be related to the ‘sense of place’ that Bourdieu refers to as ‘habitus’. He makes reference to symbolic capital – an appropriation of how things should be; that can be individualistic or collectively expressed. (Bounds, M 2014)
